4:1 "O mankind, be conscientious of your Lord, who created you (plural) from ONE soul/life/self (NAFS) and created from it (ONE NAFS) its mate and dispersed from BOTH, numerous men and women. And be conscientious of Allah, whom you ask of it or the kinship. Indeed, Allah is always on you attending."
Most translations did get the above verse almost accurately. But, what does it mean?
If the female partner of Adam was created from the anatomy of Adam then it goes on to say from Adam's body something was extracted and his female partner was created... What for? Couldn't Allah create the female partner in a similar way to how Adam was created and then give life?.. If one considers the above verse to be a physical creation of NAFS then it all goes erroneous for common sense..
Instead, if the verse is taken from one soul (Nafs) its mate's soul, then, it makes all sense.. Why? That is to say, SOUL/SELF (NAFS) was created as ONE, not physical Adam.. Then from that one SOUL/NAFS Allah extracted another soul/nafs.. Then later with anatomical creation, the first and foremost soul/Nafs was placed in Adam's anatomy while the extracted second soul/nafs was placed in his female mate.. Now two anatomies with two different souls/nafs through one/core source.. Then created from both of these anatomies (Adam and Partner) males and females evolved/created with their respective souls/nafs that was derived from one core soul.. If one claims that there is no soul in human anatomy then he or she has to directly accept that Allah created from Adam's anatomy his female mate and that's ridiculous to even imagine and that's biblical nonsense....
Now, ponder why Allah commanded His Malaika to Sujud/acknowledge Adam ALONE, not his female partner. Yes.. One core source was in Adam (first Body plus first soul) and that's the foremost creation and the most worthy to be acknowledged thus they impulsively acknowledge/sujud to the rest of the creations that came later to that SOUL/NAFS..
Allah didn't state in verse 4:1 that BOTH of them (Adam and his female partner) disperse many SOULS/Nafs but instead, Allah said, males and females (anatomical). The very reason is SOUL is ONE from one SOUL only all SOULs originated and not from BOTH of THEM (Adam and Partner).. That's anatomies that get birth... Allah has SOULs in His Possession that He has extracted out from the FIRST and Core NAFS/SOUL and He places in every womb respectively.... Every soul is an extraction of the ONE soul that Allah created..
